Mono & SourceGear Move Forward

miguel writes "The Mono project keeps evolving and is quickly becoming a mature platform for running .NET applications on Linux. SourceGear and Ximian have entered into a partnership to make their .NET-based Vault client software available to Linux and Unix users by implementing the missing web services support in Mono. The formal announcement is here and a developer overview is here. OpenLink has also contributed the functionality to turn Wine into a library that Mono is using to implement the System.Windows.Forms namespace. Another recent progress bit is the fact that Mono can run Eclipse with the IKVM Java VM for .NET"

    "Teamwork and recognition does not imply maturity"
    actually mono was mature, stable, 100% compatible and bug-free as soon as the Ximian marketing department said so
    something else the mono team has copied from Microsoft :^)
